Hello all... I am a recent LPN school grad, I graduated July 29th. I sit for my NCLEX on September 23rd! I am a nervous wreck! I literally have cried almost every other day for the past week. I've been studying but I don't understand how I can get through 3000 questions.. The questions seem to take so long to answer and read through rationales.
The books I have are Saunders, Lippincott, Exam Cram, Mary Hogan's Reviews & Rationales, and Hurst review. I have been looking at Mary Hogan and Saunders the most to keep me from feeling overwhelmed, even though I still kinda am. I have been getting around 60% on my quizzes. Is it normal to not feel ready as the day approaches? I've been praying. I'm about at my wits end and that's all I can do. I'm still running through questions and answering them.
Any advice? Any recommendations?
Thank you
-NERVOUSWRECK!

Not like I'm anywhere near taking my Nclex, but I can understand your worries. I'd say keep studying but make sure you don't overdo it because stress is not the best help for your Nclex.
Good Luck I'm sure you'll do fine. Keep me posted on how you did.
Doodles :)

Well I test a day after you. I'm at the point when I'm ready to get it over with. First all are you using one main source program for studying like Hurst? I stuck with virtual ati because it was free for me. The other books I have I practice various questions. Like since it is the last week. I stopped reading content. I'm deciding to practice questions off the books cds in addition to my original program. At this point I'm just doing questions doesn't matter if I do 100 or 1000 for the day I do when I can and stop stressing out!!! I'm also gonna read the study guide that is floating around here it has some short and sweet info!
